We build a community and we all love each other and learn and cry together. It was a great 4 years and I cherish every moment in high school both good and bad.

This school sucks. Middle school is where teachers care more about uniform than teaching us. Teachers showing bias towards certain students. I rarely get a class where I actually learn something. For example, Math class is the worst. Teachers doesn't know how to control students, students don't learn and teachers don't even teach us causing us to fail math class. Rip the student grades... :(
